PHOENICIA. Byblus. Azbaal (ca. 400-365 BC). AR shekel (24mm, 13.28 gm, 6h). NGC MS 5/5 - 5/5. Penteconter proceeding left with prow terminating in lion's head, containing three hoplites with crested helmets and round shields, on zigzag line of waves; hippocamp swimming left below ship, 'Z (Phoenician) above hippocamp, murex shell below / 'ZBL' MLK GBL (Phoenician), lion left attacking bull left. SNG Copenhagen 132. HGC 10, 133 corr. (letters not noted on obverse). Blush hues and sparkling surfaces highlight devices struck from fresh dies. A fantastic pre-Alexander the Great disruption of Phoenicia area silver coin. This is a Heritage Auctions photo and description. I was bidding but it got a little rich for me at my age. But.. I had to display it here, but it is not physically in the Moneta Museum.
Ex Heritage Auctions, Auction 3048 (11 August 2016), lot 32048.
